In Ultraman: Starting with the Battle Device

“It’s the Lockland Base!” Captain Hibi immediately realized the location, then gritted his teeth and said, “That’s a very thorough plan.”

"What is Lockland Base?" Asuka asked immediately.

……

Chapter 178 The Pajama Demon (Seeking Silver Tickets!)

"It was an asteroid equipped with space defense systems, but we shut it down after the Ganymede base on Jupiter was completed," Staff Officer Gondo replied.

"This is troublesome. If we fly over directly, we'll be intercepted." Koda sensed something was wrong. Bases like this usually have defensive weapons, and they would be destroyed by weapons hidden in the asteroid belt before they even got close.

“Let me go!” Kenji Fudo volunteered. “If we use the Victory Phantom, he definitely won’t find us.”

Asuka, who was standing nearby, volunteered, "I'll go too. I'm the one who let him get away, so I have to take responsibility!"

“Okay,” Captain Hibiki agreed.

"But..." Staff Officer Gondo then emphasized, "Success is the only option; failure is not an option!"

"Yes!"

Soon, Finio and Kenji Fudo piloted the Victory Phantom to the asteroid belt.

"Neomega System activated!"

The Victory Phantom instantly sped toward Jupiter at an extremely high speed.

During the rapid flight, Kenji Fudo said to Asuka, "If you were Yamazaki, what would you do?"

"Huh?" Asuka didn't understand what he meant.

"His initial idea was to use his research results to benefit all mankind, but he lost his goal after Dr. Otomo died."

"Hatred changed him completely."

The birds listened quietly.

"And my goal is my brother. Ever since my brother died, Asuka..."

"I constantly tell myself that I have to be stronger than you and the Super Victory Team!"

After a long silence, Asuka finally spoke, "I really want to have another match with Fudo."

"Don't joke around, you're nothing more than my follower now," Kenji Fudo said with a smile.

Asuka, unusually, didn't retort. He suddenly remembered the day of the team entrance exam.

"At that time, if I had been the first to be shot down..."

Then Asuka took out the Flash Sword and looked at it with a very serious expression.

"Will this thing still end up in my hands?"

……

Meanwhile, using the coordinates provided by the system, Raven quickly arrived at the asteroid belt located between Jupiter and Mars.

Lockland Base is located in one of these locations.

"Beep beep - Task triggered."

"Stop Yamazaki's plan. Destroy this base by yourself. Kill all of Yamazaki's Zhong Boge soldiers."

"Task reward: one chance to win a prize in the in-game store, worth 10 points."

These rewards no longer stirred any emotion in Raven's heart, and besides, even without the rewards, he wouldn't have let Yamazaki off the hook.

After locking onto an asteroid, Raven transformed into a beam of light and entered it.

Raven's intrusion quickly triggered an alarm in the base's security system.

"They caught up so quickly?" Yamazaki thought it was someone from the Super GUTS team, so he panicked and immediately dispatched his own Zhong Boge soldiers.

Reaching a closed doorway, Raven, still in his pajamas, casually kicked the thick iron door away.

The commotion immediately jolted the Zhong Boge soldiers who had already arrived, but they still swarmed towards Raven.

Continuing deeper into the area, Raven encountered a swarm of Zhongboge soldiers approaching like locusts. He immediately conjured a flashy lightsaber in his human form and then sliced ​​each of the charging Zhongboge soldiers in two with a single strike.

Through his recent training, Raven felt that the degree of fusion between himself and Ultraman's power was constantly increasing.

It's no longer a simple human form; it's almost comparable to those mimicking human forms.

In Ultraman, the human hosts are divided into several categories.

One type is the parasitic relationship between the original Ultraman and Hayata Susumu, where Ultraman and his human host each have their own independent consciousness.

One type is like Seven, who is directly transformed from an Ultraman into a human; Dan Moroboshi is Seven himself.

Another type is like the Heisei Three, where the human host directly inherits Ultraman's power.

However, within the series, neither Tiga, Dyna, nor Gaia possess their own independent consciousness; the power lies entirely with Daigo, Asuka, and Gamu. One could say they are both Ultraman and not Ultraman.

Raven is now gradually transforming from the fragile human form of Daigo, Gamu, and Asuka into a form like Seven.

This process can be described as somewhat painful, much like the original Ultramen of the Land of Light when they experienced the radiation from the Plasma Spark Tower. Now, he can feel his flesh and blood transforming at every moment, but this is also a necessary process to go through in order to become stronger.

Camilla underwent this process 3 million years ago, which is why she can achieve a near-infinite lifespan. She can also use powerful illusions or teleportation while in human form.

In this way, Raven swept through the entire base with overwhelming force, leaving countless Zhongboge soldiers dismembered and lying on the ground wherever he went.

Raven then arrived at his final destination: Yamazaki's location.

"Who exactly are you?" Yamazaki asked Raven, trying to appear calm as he walked in.

"I'm giving you a chance. Cancel that rocket launch yourself. I don't want to see Earthlings turn into those monsters," Raven said seriously to Yamazaki, still in his pajamas.

"I'm sorry you're late. The rocket is about to launch, and even I can't stop it now." Yamazaki said dismissively to the strange man in front of him.

At this moment, no one can stop him from his great feat of creating a new human being.

At this point, Yamazaki quietly pressed a button.

In an instant, a laser cage fell from above, trapping Raven.

"Hahaha!"

Yamazaki was still unsure of himself. He appeared calm on the surface but was actually panicking. After all, he had seen the footage of Raven massacring Zhong Boge's soldiers on the surveillance video.

They originally wanted to escape, but they had already been found by the other party.

So they had no choice but to lure Raven into the trap, but that was a gamble.

But unexpectedly, his gamble paid off!

"I thought he was some extraordinary person who walked into the trap so easily?" Yamazaki laughed loudly.

But the next second, he suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.

A thin energy shield formed around Raven's body, and he walked out directly, enduring the scorching heat of the laser.

Actually, he put up the protective shield just to protect his pajamas; he didn't want them to be burned.

Raven's body is now strong enough to withstand lasers of this strength; with his physical defenses, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he's invulnerable to bullets and blades.

"Who...who exactly are you?" Yamazaki kept backing away, looking incredulously at Raven, who emerged from the cage like a demon.

……

Chapter 179 The Kind Raven (Seeking Silver Tickets!)

"I was going to give you a chance, but it seems like you don't really value it," Raven said helplessly.

In the instant Yamazaki was taken aback, Raven moved swiftly and kicked him.

"boom!"

Yamazaki's body slammed into the solid wall, creating countless cracks.

"puff--"

He spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling as if his internal organs had been shattered. In desperation, he struggled to pull a syringe from his pocket.

This contains the Ebron cells that he cultivated.

"I...will not...die!"

Faced with this desperate situation, Yamazaki suddenly laughed, revealing his teeth stained with blood.

He was about to inject himself with the syringe.

But in the blink of an eye, Raven's strong hand clamped down on Yamazaki's hand that was holding the syringe.

"Putting aside the fact that even if you turned into a monster, it wouldn't make any difference to me, I would never let you succeed in front of me," Raven said with a smile.

"Ugh... let go... of me!" Yamazaki felt as if his bones were about to burst, his wrist gripped by Raven's iron clamp.

"Hehe." Raven ignored his pleas and continued to exert more force.

Raven would never show mercy to scum like this who, having lost his purpose in life, wants the whole world to pay for his mistakes.

"Snap—"

A sound of bone cracking rang out, followed by Yamazaki's heart-wrenching screams.

"Next, I have something to ask you." Raven smiled kindly at him.

Then, with a forceful twist, he bent his arm and wrapped it around his back.

"what--!"

The scream seemed to echo throughout the entire base.

This left Asuka and Kenji Fudo, who had just arrived, quite puzzled.

"Did you hear anything?" Asuka asked, raising her gun and cautiously observing her surroundings.

"It sounds like someone is calling." Kenji Fudo arrived at a doorway, leaned against one of the walls, and then quietly peeked inside to observe the situation.

"This door looks like it was forcibly broken open," Kenji Fudo observed.

"Hey, this dent looks like a footprint," Asuka chimed in, joining the conversation.

He saw a clearly visible dent in the middle of the collapsed security door made of a special alloy, which looked like the sole of some kind of common slipper.
